Default Re: Share your Vegetarian or Vegan Testimony Here!

Hello!! My name is Sallie and I'm new to this forum! I'm a new vegetarian. For the last year or so I've been saying "If I knew what animals went through, I'd become a vegetarian." Then I started researching... I watched the videos on goveg.com on March 12th and I've not eaten any meat since...

I'm sick to my stomach just thinking of all the animals that have died just to feed me. In reality I can do just fine with a plant-based diet- how silly to think we were "dependant" on aminals... I was never a "big" meat eater anyway. I'm getting A LOT of flack from my family, especially asking about my childen and worried about their welfare. At this point they are still omnivores, but I won't be bringing meat into the house to feed my children unless it's precooked.... Weird, I know, but handling raw meat is too much for me... I've already transitioned to soy milk (yummy, but the color will take some time to get used to- LOL). My eggs in the fridge are from my Ex-MILs hens (they have a farm).

I'm hoping to go Vegan, but have a few obstacles at this point- cheese, milk chocolate, and eating at other peoples homes... I may go vegan at home; lacto-ovo vegetarian outside of the house... We'll see..

Anyhoo- that's me in a nutshell. Ohh and I LOVE nuts which helps- although sometimes I feel like a nut!

Sallie
